Author & Punisher Biography
20 Years of Industrial Doom & Drone Machines.
Author & Punisher is led by composer, vocalist and mechanical engineer Tristan Shone. Utilizing custom machines and controllers called Drone Machines, the music draws heavily on aspects of industrial automation, robotics and mechanical devices, focusing on the eroticism of interaction with machine.
In 2025 A&P releases Nocturnal Birding, an ablum inspired by wild birdsong and shaped by Shone’s volunteer work along the US/Mexico border. Mixed and mastered by Will Putney (Knocked Loose, Heriot, Body Count, Machine Head) with musical guest appearances from France’s Fange, Indonesia’s Kuntari, and New York City’s Megan Oztrosits of Couch Slut
